DOUGLAS COUNTY YOUTH CENTER

Located in a large city setting at 1301 S 41st Street in Omaha, Nebraska (ZIP code 68105), the Douglas County Youth Center operates as a specialized local education agency serving students in seventh through twelfth grade. As an active, fully operational public educational entity within the vibrant Omaha metropolitan area, the center focuses on delivering targeted secondary instruction across middle and high school grade levels. Operating a single dedicated facility, the district fulfills a distinct role within Nebraska’s public education system by offering structured academic programming tailored to the unique needs of older youth in an urban institutional environment.

To support its academic environment, the facility maintains a dedicated team of professionals, including 16 full-time equivalent teachers and two specialized support staff members, bringing the center's total staffing context to 18 full-time equivalent personnel. While annual snapshot data records zero traditional, long-term student enrollment—a standard reporting feature for short-term, transitional, or facility-based educational programs—the district's substantial teaching workforce ensures low student-to-teacher ratios and direct instructional support whenever students are served. Families, community partners, and researchers seeking additional information regarding the center's educational operations and administration can reach the main office directly at (402) 444-4767.
